This week, with Christmas approaching, there are several local events scheduled to get Hunt County residents in the spirit. Here are a few that we listed in this week's paper.
On the front page, dates and times for Greenville's new "landmark" Christmas event are posted. It's a free Christmas concert, entitled "Classic Christmas", and it will be held on Sunday, December 18th, from 3 to 5pm. Set to benefit Suzuki Strings, the concert will feature European Ensemble, a classically-trained, four-woman string quartet from Dallas, and a variety of other performers, as well. An historical tour of the church and refreshments will follow. The concert will be held at downtown Greenville's National Register Landmark Central Christian Church.
If you're a retiree in the Hunt County area, consider attending the UAW Local Chapter 967's Retiree Christmas Dinner on Thursday, December 15th at noon. The meal will be hosted at Union Hall, 601 Jack Finney Blvd., in Greenville. The meal is a drive to increase the UAW's retiree membership, and to discuss the prospect of monthly meetings and the future of the Retiree Board.
If you have small children who might not enjoy a classical concert or a retiree dinner, fear not - Santa Clause will be visiting Crossroads Mall again this year. Photo opportunities are available from 10am - 4pm on December 14-16, 1pm - 5pm on December 17 and 18 and 10am - 6pm on December 19-23.
As the big event looms closer, here at the Hunt County Shopper, we wish each of you a safe, merry and stress-free Holiday Season, and a smooth passage into 2012!
